Your life didn't begin at birth and it won't end at death. Before you came to earth, your spirit lived with Heavenly Father who created you. You knew Him, and He knew and loved you. It was a happy time during which you were taught God's plan of happiness and the path to true joy. But just as most of us leave our home and parents when we grow up, God knew you needed to do the same. He knew you couldn't progress unless you left for a while. So he allowed you to come to earth to experience the joy—as well as pain—of a physical body.
One thing that makes this life so hard sometimes is that we're out of God's physical presence. Not only that, but we can't remember our pre-earth life which means we have to operate by faith rather than sight. God didn't say it would be easy, but He promised His spirit would be there when we needed Him. Even though it feels like it sometimes, we're not alone in our journey.
That doesn't mean He expects you to be perfect. He knows you won't be. But He does expect that while you're here on earth you try to the best of your ability to be more like Him and that you learn and grow from your mistakes. Each time you make a poor choice with painful consequences, that decision leads to unhappiness—sometimes immediately, sometimes much later. Likewise, choosing good eventually leads to happiness and helps you become more like Heavenly Father.
Just as God created the earth as a place for you to live and gain experience, He created you. And gave you a body of flesh and blood in the likeness of His glorified body. In the Old Testament God said, "Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness" (Genesis 1:26). Jacob declared that he had seen God "face to face" (Genesis 32:30). Moses also spoke with God "face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend" (Exodus 33:11). In the New Testament, when the resurrected Christ appeared to His Apostles, He told them, "Handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have" (Luke 24:39).
As God's first children on earth, Adam and Eve were living in their garden paradise. They didn't feel any sorrow or pain, which might seem nice, except that without it, they also couldn't feel joy. They didn't remember their pre-earth life. If they hadn't eaten the forbidden fruit, they would have lived like that forever and never had children. Mankind never would have been born or the world populated.
As we know, Adam and Eve succumbed to Satan's temptations to eat the fruit and disobeyed God who had commanded them not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. As a consequence, they were separated from God's presence physically and spiritually—an event we refer to as the Fall. They became mortal—just as we are—subject to sin, disease, all types of suffering, and ultimately death. But it wasn't all bad because they could now feel great joy. "Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy." (2 Nephi 2:25) But as they were obedient to the Gospel of Jesus Christ Adam and Eve were able to receive God's inspiration, revelation, and even visits from heavenly messengers.
Once out of the garden, they were able to progress and learn to become more like our Heavenly Father. In addition, they could have children, which meant the rest of God's spirit children (all of us) could come to Earth, experience physical bodies, and be proven by our daily choices. Just like Adam and Eve, there are consequences to all our choices, good or bad. Lasting happiness and progression come from choosing to do what God wants us to do. The key word is "choosing." Generally God does not step in and prevent us from making the poor choices Satan tempts us to make. He will, however, offer his love, divine guidance, and warnings when we open our heart to Him.
We often fall into the trap of thinking a new car, job promotion, beauty makeover, or some level of fame will make us happy. And often they do—for a time. But it never lasts because wealth, power, beauty and fame simply don't bring lasting happiness, as much as we wish they would. Rather, true happiness comes from following Christ's example and developing Godlike attributes such as goodness, love, justice and mercy. It comes from serving others and helping them to follow the example and teachings of Jesus Christ. It comes from overcoming the appetites of our human bodies and instead following the promptings of the Spirit. It comes from working hard and having a healthy lifestyle, friends, family, and personal achievements. Regardless of what you do or don't have in this life, your deepest, most lasting happiness will come from knowing God's plan and following it.
We get sick. Loved ones die. We lose our job or home. Our spouse is unfaithful. It's hard not to ask why God allows us to suffer so much. Know that while God takes no pleasure in your suffering, your difficulties, regardless of their cause, can bring you closer to Him and even make you stronger if you endure faithfully (2 Nephi 2:2, Revelation 3:19).
It's comforting to know that God's Son, Jesus Christ, suffered all things. He understands your pain and can help you through your trials. When you have faith in God and His plan, you can be assured that there's a purpose to all that happens to you here on earth. Our time here is short compared to our eternal life. As the Lord told Joseph Smith during a period of intense suffering:
Coping with calamities can strengthen you and make you more compassionate. It can help you learn, grow and want to serve others. Dealing with adversity is one of the chief ways you're tested and tutored in your life here on Earth. Our loving Heavenly Father has the ability to compensate us for any injustices we may be called upon to endure in this mortal life. If we endure faithfully He will reward us beyond our ability to comprehend in the life to come (1 Corinthians 2:9). Amazingly, with God's help you can experience joy even in times of trial, and face life's challenges with a spirit of peace.
Your mistakes might be as simple as hurting your friend's feelings, or a sin far more serious. Seeing the pain we've caused and feeling the misery of remorse, shame and guilt can sometimes be overwhelming and devastating. We wonder if we can ever overcome our mistakes and feel the peace of being forgiven. We unequivocally can, because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the process of repentance. We can confess our sins to God and ask His forgiveness. And he's promised that He'll "remember them no more" (Doctrine and Covenants 58:42). It works because Heavenly Father sent his son, Jesus Christ, to voluntarily suffer and pay for our sins and sorrows by atoning for them Himself. We can't fully understand how Jesus suffered for our sins. But we know that in the Garden of Gethsemane, the weight of our sins caused Him such agony that He bled from every pore (Luke 22:39-44) . Later, as He hung upon the cross, Jesus willingly suffered painful death by one of the cruelest methods ever known (Alma 7:11).
However, His mental and spiritual anguish went well beyond the pains of the cross. The Savior tells us, "For behold, I . . . have suffered these things for all, that they might not suffer . . . even as I" (Doctrine and Covenants 19:16–17).
In addition to asking God's forgiveness, He also wants us to ask forgiveness of those we've harmed, see if we can repair the damage, and promise not to repeat the same mistakes. Then we can move forward feeling God's love and the incredible peace and joy that come from being fully forgiven.
To make His Atonement fully effective in your life, you need to:
Picture your hand inside a glove. The glove moves only when your hand does. Take your hand out and the glove sits lifeless on the table. This is an easy way to visualize what happens when you die. Imagine your body is the glove being operated by who you really are—your spirit. When you die your body gets left behind, lifeless like a glove, but your spirit lives forever.
Countless scriptures and personal accounts by prophets throughout time have told us this is true.
When you're the one left behind—the one losing a friend or loved one—the pain of that loss is very real. But there's a lot of comfort in knowing you'll see him or her again. And because of Christ's death, at some point our spirit and body will be reunited (resurrected) and made perfect never to be separated again.
Most of us would probably say we want to live forever. That's exactly what God gave to each of us when He sent His son, Jesus Christ, to earth to die for us and to atone for our sins. It's called resurrection and everyone born on earth, even wicked people, will receive this gift of immortality (1 Corinthians 15:22).
On the third day after His Crucifixion, Jesus Christ became the first person to be resurrected. His spirit was reunited with His glorified, perfected body and He could no longer die. When Christ's friends went to visit His tomb, angels said, "He is not here: for he is risen, as he said" (Matthew 28:6).
Yes! God will judge all men fairly and reward them appropriately with a place within His kingdom.

Led by an expert Vatican guide, your comprehensive tour visits the sacred Sistine Chapel, Raphael's Rooms, St Peters Basilica and more!
Due to a new Vatican partnership, this tour provides VIP access through a reserved door, allowing you to skip all the lines – even the priority lines.

The Vatican Museums comprise one of the world's largest museum complexes, containing some 2,000 rooms that stretch for nearly 9 miles (15 km) inside Vatican City. A treasure trove of incredible art and architecture, the museums are the highlight of most Vatican visits, so queues are predictably long. Skip-the-line Vatican tours are so popular, even the priority lines are
long! But this tour includes exclusive access through a reserved
entranceway, ensuring that you will not wait in any long lines. Gain access as soon as the doors open, and head past the long lines and into the heart of the Vatican before the public steps foot inside.
In your small group of no more than 12 people, stroll through the corridors to view the world's largest private art collection, once intended exclusively for the pope. As your expert guide entertains you with tales of Vatican power and intrigue, you'll feel the Renaissance works of art come to life.
Amble through Raphael's Rooms, the four interconnecting chambers adorned with paintings by Raphael and his pupils, before visiting the breathtakingly beautiful Sistine Chapel, which is considered the pope's home chapel. Walk through this sacred Vatican site to see Michelangelo's astounding frescoes, The Creation of Adam and The Last Judgment, without the crowds that appear later in the day.
The last part of your small-group Vatican tour focuses on St Peter's Basilica, with its distinctive 450-foot-high (137-meter) dome. Step inside to see why it's so much more than just a church, and gaze in wonder at its awe-inspiring architecture and mosaics, including another Michelangelo masterpiece, La Pietà. Steeped in history, St Peters Basilica is said to stand on the ground where St Peter the Apostle was crucified and buried.
Your guide will explain the highlights of the basilica and its significance as the holiest place in Christendom, before your tour ends in stunning St Peter's Square.

If I Only Had a Brain!
Carl is working a late schedule this week so of course I was in a rush to get out of the office and get home. But this evening before I could head home I had to stop and get food for the dogs. I glanced at my watch and knew that if I didn't chat with the employees in the shop like I usually do, I could be home by 7:00. So, I rushed in, picked up what I needed, and didn't even wait for the offer to carry my bags of food to my van. I had a spot right up front so I was going to quickly be on my way...At least that was the plan...When I pushed the button on my key to unlock the door, nothing happened. I tried it again, and again, and again, and nothing happened. I'd noticed the last week or so that it hasn't been working that well, and so it didn't take long to conclude that the battery for the key must be dead, giving me no way to get into my van. I tried to get in touch with Carl, but was unable. I was really trying to keep my composure. But I have to admit that it was getting increasingly difficult because all the stress I've been feeling the last couple of days was finally starting to get to me. I know they could see me from inside the shop because "Jon" who is the manager came out and asked me if everything was okay. I was nearly in tears as I explained to him about my dead key battery and not being able to get into my van. He looked at my key and very kindly and carefully paused for a moment and then asked me if I'd tried putting the key into the door to unlock it....Oh...I guess I forgot that it works that way too...I'm sure they're having a good laugh at my expense at "Whole Pet" and you can laugh too if you'd like--It's really okay because I deserve it! Besides I really needed a laugh today as well, even one at myself is okay because it has made me feel better! Laughter really is the best medicine!!

Hi Kim
We have never experienced the dead key battery thing yet, but thank you for bringing to my mind that it can happen. We just got our first car that has "one of those crazy keys" and I am not looking forward to learning all it can or cannot do.
That will be all i need to happen is for the key to go dead- but thank goodness there is a key hole in the door- well i guess there is, i better go look now!
I am glad it all turned out okay.
That part of your week- at least.

You have already written the screen play for every bloggy friend who reads this post (you perfectly predicted my reactions as I read your post), so there's only this to say: did you tell this story to the dogs when you got home? I can see them and hear them now, "Where have you been Mom, we is hungry" woof woof - would be their lines in your "hurry up world" of a movie. Glad no one starved to death. Chill, they can wait an extra hour. They really do understand. But, now that I think of it, I'd love to see those faces on video when you walk in late; clamoring for your attention and doing their chow-chow dances.

Its amazing how we've become so accustomed to pushing a button that old ways don't come natural anymore. I would probably never have thought of actually putting the key in the lock either. I notice your key has a panic button on it, mine doesn't but I will tell you something I once read that may be of help to your readers and I guess it depends on where you part your car and stuff but as I say I once read that when you go to bed at night to take your car keys with you and then if you ever wake to hear someone breaking in to your house or something go to the window and press the panic button on your car keys and with luck your car will do whatever it does when it panics and this will either alert the neighbours or frighten off the intruder.
- Wed Jun 30, 02:35:00 AM
- bellaboo said...
I could just imagine your panic at that moment..I would have felt the same.My OH works on cars and some of the modern ones don't even have a key,just a card thingy...modern technology eh?
Glad you were able to see the funny side and it cheered you up.

- Louise said...
Oh, I've done that too. That feeling of panic is horrible, isn't it. Wipes away your brain, and turns it into a mushy pile of jello. I did, eventually, remember about using the actual key, and I won't ever forget again. Bet you won't either.
- Wed Jun 30, 08:10:00 AM

I know how that goes - when your busy and hurrying and something goes wrong and you panic. I will let you in on a little secret though... My husband has done the same thing! LOL!

Hi Kim
Thanks for the chuckle this morning:) I have had the moment where I tried clicking the key, inserting it into "my" car and being frustrated that it wouldn't fit in. Of course not, it wasn't my car - just one that looked like mine!
Hope the rest of your week is better.

well you and I must have some of the same brain material and stress level, because as I was reading I was thinking you poor thing, I wonder how it will all work out, and not ONE time did I think about using the actual key.
So glad you shared this because honestly, I can so see myself crying in a parking lot somewhere holding on to my dead key clicker and not thinking to use the key.
- Wed Jun 30, 10:30:00 AM
- Sandra said...
The key was THE key:)) This was funny to read and it was funny for you to share.. I am sure it was not that funny when it actually took place. Sometimes the obvious just eludes us... it's how this technology affects us... it is NOT our fault!

I didn't even realize those things have batteries! Thanks for this cautionary tale -- I'm sure it's about to happen to me too (it's been over 4 years) and now I'll know what to do.--Inger

Oh Kim! Don't worry about being forgetful! It happens to everybody!!!! Momma loses her keys almost every week!

After I stopped smiling, I went outside to try my key in the SUV's door :)
Sometimes the writing on the wall is not as it used to be ...

Glad I am able to stop by and visit once again.

Thanks for my morning laugh, sorry it was at your expense. Hubby's new truck has a key like that so of course I have the second key and can never get the doors to open. I'll just stick to my one key opens them all car.
Hope you have a great long weekend and can enjoy some Independence day celebrations.

Thanks for the smile. As I read your story, I thought "maybe she could get a new battery and a little screwdriver at the drugstore, so she could get back in her car..." -- it never occurred to me, either, that you could just put the key in the lock! :)

Stuttgart. Porsche AG has not only begun the year particularly successful, but 2013 also marks the anniversary of the company's most iconic car: the Porsche 911 has for the last 50 years been equally at home on the racetrack as on the road. Its genetic DNA can be found in every other Porsche model. At over 820,000 units built, the 911 is the world's most successful sports car ever. In addition to the anniversary, the International Motor Show in Geneva also provides a stage for two particularly sporty premieres on the Porsche stand in hall 1. The press conference on the stand takes place on March 5 at 10.45 CET.
The title 'World Premiere' truly applies here to the first appearance of an extremely exciting 911 model, which awaits with new engineering highlights, plus a whole lot more. The car's driving dynamics and driving excitement are at an even higher level than before. For the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup this will be its first public unveiling. Delivering 460 hp, this single-make cup racer is the latest version of the car, which is, with a total of 2,400 units, the best-selling and most successful sports car in the world. The new 911 GT3 Cup is initially being deployed in the international Porsche Supercup 2013.
Further information and pictures for journalists and media representatives can be found on the Porsche press database at http://presse.porsche.de/.

Islamic Values Emphasize Social Responsibility – IFANCA
Chicago, Nov 10, 2010 - In support of social justice and social responsibility, both of which comprise the foundation of the Muslim faith, IFANCA was present at an event titled "An Interfaith Conversation on Food, Race and Worker Justice in the U.S. Food System". The event was hosted by the Center for New Community University Center in Chicago, on Nov. 10th and 11th, 2010.
According to a well-known hadith (saying of the Prophet Muhammad), when the Prophet was asked if there was a reward for serving animals, (be it feeding them, offering them shelter etc), he replied in the affirmative. He said that there is indeed a reward for serving any living being," noted Dr. Farhat Quadri, Director, Community Relations, IFANCA. "Even animals that are slaughtered for food have to be raised humanely. Given those standards, the welfare of workers, automatically, is of paramount importance to Muslims."
Other attendees included Mr. Taj Suleyman, Center for Intercultural Organizing, Rabbi Morris Allen from the Beth Jacob Congregation, Rabbi Andrea Cohen-Kiener from Interreligious Eco-Justice Network, Anita Green from the United Methodist Church, Rabbi Jill Jacobs, The Rev. Kazi Joshua from Allegheny College, The Reverend Doug Mork of United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, Dawn Nothwehr, Catholic Theological Seminary and Rev. Dave Ostendorf, Garat Ibrahim and Charlotte Williams from the Center for New Community.
The 10th Annual Chicago Muslim Turkey Drive (co-sponsored by AMAL and the IFANCA run Sabeel Food Pantry) came to its end yesterday, and, Alhamdu Lillah (thanks to God) resulted in the delivery of 660 turkeys to needy families on Chicago's South Side. The day began at a little after 9 am with the arrival of a big white truck carrying 165 cases of frozen turkeys to Emmett Till Academy's campus at 65th and Champlaine managed to set up a well-practiced delivery system: a human chain of men moving 55 pound boxes of frozen turkeys from the back of the delivery truck into the school's auditorium entrance, where they were then wheeled by gurney to the auditorium stage and stacked, ready to be distributed.
At the outset, we discovered a major hurdle a few months back when we discovered that turkey prices had risen 20%, due largely to a 50% rise in the price of turkey feed. This led to your coordinator having a few restless nights during the past few weeks, and is the reason that my first set of thanks (after thanking the Almighty) is to everyone who donated this year. Even though we gave away eight fewer turkeys than last year, we actually raised more money, and the fact that you stepped up to cover this increase is a testament to your generosity. In addition, we are proud that even though this is a grass-roots effort organized by Chicago's Muslim community, by our estimates some 10% of the money raised is given by non-Muslims.
This speaks to the fact that what we consider an essential part of our faith – helping those in need – is shared by people of good will of all backgrounds, and that more of these efforts are wanted.
Happy Thanksgiving! See you all at Turkey Drive 2011!
On Dec 4, 2010, Dr. Muhammad Munir Chaudry, IFANCA President will be addressing Global Halal in Pakistan. Speaking on the Benefits of Halal Certification as part of the inaugural panel, he will elaborate on how halal certification can develop "halal brands" that will be at the forefront of the US$ 2 trillion global halal economy.
The event is expected to have an audience of exporters and businessmen. IFANCA frequently presents at conferences on halal, marketing, food, restaurant and consumers. It shares its experience as a halal certifier for both consumer and foodservice products, all over the world.
Halal Food Service Launched at Bradley University
Like other students who live on campus, when Muslim students return home during breaks it means getting loads of laundry done. But it also means stocking up on several weeks worth of halal home-made meals. Bradley University, IL Senior Bilaluddin Mohammed was only too familiar with this himself. And that is how he decided to work with University Dining Services at Bradley to establish what is believed to be the first halal food service at an Illinois university.
On the menu currently are halal sandwiches and halal pizza. Halal hotdogs and chicken patties are expected soon. According to the University, across the country, many Muslim students are forced into a quasi-vegetarian lifestyle while attending college, so initiating a halal food service at Bradley has been a top priority among student leaders here for some time.
As reported online: "No matter what background Muslim students are coming from, they will feel so comfortable here and so appreciative of this service because they were raised eating this way," said Mohammed, who is president of the Muslim Student Association. University Dining Services Executive Director Ron Gibson has spent his career accommodating the culinary needs of multicultural university campuses. Under his leadership, Bradley's offerings have expanded dramatically this year.
"We know there is a very diverse group on college campuses nationwide, so to assist with the recruitment process we want to be able to offer foods that are familiar to these groups of young adults," said Mr. Gibson.
National Foods Limited of Pakistan
Toronto, Ontario- On September 21, 2010, people from Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada, Agri-Food Trade Commission, Industry and various representatives participated in the seminar which focused on how Canadian manufacturers can take advantage of the Middle East and Southeast Asia markets. Susan Powell, President, Canadian Food Exporters Association (CFEA), hosted this event with the cooperation of the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. National Foods Limited, a Pakistani company founded in 1970 which started out as a spice company, is now IFANCA halal-Certified. Renowned for its blend of pre-mixed dried spice blends; its products are sold worldwide. Each product is designed to replicate the spices for an authentic Indian or Pakistani dish. In 1988, National Foods became the certified vendor of McCormick, USA. In the same year, National Foods, then a Private Limited company was converted into a Public Limited, listed on all the three stock exchanges in Pakistan. Today its range of spice mixes includes over110 products in 12 major categories.

Does any of this bother you? Well it scares me to death. He should be working on the unemployment issues. As of today, the unemployment is 7.9 percent. We should be working on getting the 45 million people off of food stamps and finally, stop calling the Social Security as a benefit. Those of us who worked all our lives, paid in to the Social Security and our employers matched it, so please, don't call it a benefit. Medicare is not free either, for those who were eligible for this year paid $1,198. That sure doesn't look free to me.
And finally, we need to be working on closing the borders. How many times have we heard that? Folks, you need to speak up to the politicians. It's time.

Visiting Rome is like time travelling: you can admire at the same time the majestic and monumental buildings of the imperial age like the Colosseum, the classic Pantheon, the paleo - Christian basilicas, the medieval bell towers, the renaissance Campidoglio Square, the baroque fountains, the eighteenth-century staircase of Trinità dei Monti and the spectacular Trevi's Fountain.
Rome is a real casket which contains a higher number of architectural jewels than what it seemed at first sight. This is the reason why the city center of Rome was declared Patrimony of Humanity by UNESCO.

Walking is definitely the best way to discover Rome. The historic centre of Rome is compact and manageable on foot and most of it is closed to normal traffic. If you are not in a hurry, we recommend taking a bus to a central area and then going for a little jaunt of your own.
You will avoid the annoying city traffic by adventuring down the narrow and beautiful cobbled streets. There is no chance you will not come across some beautiful hidden treasure…after all, this is the beauty of Rome!

During your stay in Rome, you cannot miss a visit to one of the beautiful museums the city has to offer. With so many monuments, museums and masterpieces to view, the decision on where to begin can be overwhelming. There are numerous galleries which display prestigious collections of paintings and sculptures, in addition to the Etruscan collection of Villa Giulia, the prehistoric and medieval exhibits of Preistorico Etnografico and Museo dell'Alto Medioevo, or the collection of statues and coins of the Museo Nazionale Romano.
Among all, the Vatican Musuems deserve a particular mention as they house many of the masterpieces of the ancient art. Not to forget the archeological relevance of the Hellenic and Roman collections contained in the Capitoline Museums.
Tickets to some museums can be purchased online in the following webpage: www.ticketeria.it (saves you time standing in the queue)

Rome is a wonderland even for children. Where else in the world can children climb church domes, search for gladiators, discover secret passageways and fuel up with pizza and ice cream as they go? Rome is also very kid-friendly and filled with attractions to stimulate young imagination.
So, here are just few ideas. We have included some of the city's spectacular parks, playgrounds, kid museums and shops and much more to intrigue your children and make your visit very special.
If you are traveling with kids, the key is not to visit too many places in one single day, to avoid covering long distances on foot and to leave plenty of time for relaxation and just looking around.
Remember that in Rome discounts do exist. Always ask about a "sconto bambino" (child's discount) before purchasing tickets. Kids under 3 ft. 3 in. (1 m) tall travel free on public transportation. Children under 18 who are EU citizens are admitted free to state-run museums and galleries, and there are similar privileges in many municipal or private museums.

Whaaa? Black Man Gets Raped By An 18-Year Old White Male!
Description: "n Friday 16th July, a man was seriously sexually assaulted in the small town of Wadhurst in Sussex. The victim, a middle-aged black male, was walking along Station Road at about 4.45pm, when he turned into a private road called The Marlpit. As he did, he was stopped by two men in a car. The car was a dark blue Volkswagen Polo – an older style model, with a beige interior. The driver asked for directions to Tunbridge Wells. The victim walked over to the driver's side to give him directions, when the passenger got out of the car and asked the victim for a light. The passenger then made a racist comment before punching the victim in the face. The victim fell to his knees and was then sexually assaulted by the passenger. The assault was interrupted when the driver yelled "oi" from the car and passenger got back into the vehicle. The car turned around and was driven away. " - BBC

Summary of Kiss My Math Summary of Kiss My Math Reviews for Kiss My Math An Excerpt from Kiss My Math
The New York Times bestseller-from the author of Math Doesn't Suck-teaches girls how to kick pre-algebra butt
In her New York Times bestselling books, actress and math genius Danica McKellar shatters the "math nerd" stereotype and gives girls the tools to ace middle-school math in her unique, just-us-girls style. Now, in her second book, Kiss My Math, McKellar empowers a new crop of girls-seventh to ninth graders-to tackle the next level of mathematics: pre-algebra.
Stepping up not only the math but the sass and style, McKellar helps math-phobic teenagers chill out and finally "get" negative numbers, variables, absolute values, exponents, and more. As she did so effectively in Math Doesn't Suck, McKellar uses personality quizzes, reader polls, real-life testimonials, and stories from her own life-in addition to clear instruction, helpful tips, and practice problems-revealing why pre-algebra is easier, more relevant, and more glamorous than girls think. McKellar is clearly reaching her audience: parents, teachers, and especially girls are asking for more.

Traveling-wave tube
A traveling-wave tube (TWT) is a specialised vacuum tube that is used in electronics to amplify radio frequency (RF) signals to high power, usually as part of an electronic assembly known as a traveling-wave tube amplifier (TWTA).
The bandwidth of a broadband TWT can be as high as one octave, although tuned (narrowband) versions exist, and operating frequencies range from 300 MHz to 50 GHz. The power gain of the tube is on the order of 70 decibels.
The device is an elongated vacuum tube with an electron gun (a heated cathode that emits electrons) at one end. A magnetic containment field around the tube focuses the electrons into a beam, which then passes down the middle of an RF circuit (wire helix or coupled cavity) that stretches from the RF input to the RF output, the electron beam finally striking a collector at the other end. A directional coupler, usually a waveguide or an electromagnetic coil, fed with the low-powered radio signal that is to be amplified, is positioned near the emitter, and induces a current into the helix.
The RF circuit acts as a delay line, in which the RF signal travels at near the same speed along the tube as the electron beam. The electromagnetic field due to the RF signal in the RF circuit interacts with the electron beam, causing bunching of the electrons (an effect called velocity modulation), and the electromagnetic field due to the beam current then induces more current back into the RF circuit (i.e. the current builds up and thus is amplified as it passes down).
A second directional coupler, positioned near the collector, receives an amplified version of the input signal from the far end of the RF circuit. Attenuators placed along the RF circuit prevent the reflected wave from traveling back to the cathode.
Higher powered Helix TWTs usually contain beryllium oxide ceramic as both a helix support rod and in some cases, as an electron collector for the TWT because of its special electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties.[1][2]
Invention, development and early use[edit]
The invention of the TWT is widely attributed to Rudolf Kompfner in 1942–1943, although Nils Lindenblad, working at RCA (Radio Corporation of America) in the USA did patent a device in May 1940[3] that was remarkably similar to Kompfner's TWT.[4]:2 Kompfner independently invented the TWT, and built the first working TWT, in a British Admiralty radar lab during World War II.[5] His first sketch of his TWT is dated November 12, 1942, and he built his first TWT in early 1943.[4]:3[6] The TWT was refined by Kompfner,[6] John Pierce,[7] and Lester M. Field at Bell Labs.
By the 1950s, after further development at the Electron Tube Laboratory at Hughes Aircraft Company in Culver City, California, TWTs went into production there, and by the 1960s TWTs were also produced by such companies as the English Electric Valve Company, followed by Ferranti in the seventies.[8][9][10]
On July 10, 1962, the first communications satellite, Telstar 1, was launched with a 2 W, 4 GHz RCA-designed TWT transponder used for transmitting RF signals to Earth stations. Syncom 2, the first synchronous satellite (Syncom 1 did not reach its final orbit), launched on July 26, 1963 with two 2 W, 1850 MHz Hughes-designed TWT transponders (one active and one spare).[11][12]
Coupled-cavity TWT[edit]
Helix TWTs are limited in peak RF power by the current handling (and therefore thickness) of the helix wire. As power level increases, the wire can overheat and cause the helix geometry to warp. Wire thickness can be increased to improve matters, but if the wire is too thick it becomes impossible to obtain the required helix pitch for proper operation. Typically helix TWTs achieve less than 2.5 kW output power.
The coupled-cavity TWT overcomes this limit by replacing the helix with a series of coupled cavities arranged axially along the beam. This structure provides a helical waveguide, and hence amplification can occur via velocity modulation. Helical waveguides have very nonlinear dispersion and thus are only narrowband (but wider than klystron). A coupled-cavity TWT can achieve 60 kW output power.
Operation is similar to that of a klystron, except that coupled-cavity TWTs are designed with attenuation between the slow-wave structure instead of a drift tube. The slow-wave structure gives the TWT its wide bandwidth. A free electron laser allows higher frequencies.
Traveling-wave-tube amplifier[edit]
A TWT integrated with a regulated power supply and protection circuits is referred to as a traveling-wave-tube amplifier[13] (abbreviated TWTA and often pronounced "TWEET-uh"). It is used to produce high-power radio frequency signals. The bandwidth of a broadband TWTA can be as high as one octave,[citation needed] although tuned (narrowband) versions exist; operating frequencies range from 300 MHz to 50 GHz.
A TWTA consists of a traveling-wave tube coupled with its protection circuits (as in klystron) and regulated power supply Electronic Power Conditioner (EPC), which may be supplied and integrated by a different manufacturer. The main difference between most power supplies and those for vacuum tubes is that efficient vacuum tubes have depressed collectors to recycle kinetic energy of the electrons, so the secondary winding of the power supply needs up to 6 taps of which the helix voltage needs precise regulation. The subsequent addition of a linearizer (as for inductive output tube) can, by complementary compensation, improve the gain compression and other characteristics of the TWTA; this combination is called a linearized TWTA (LTWTA, "EL-tweet-uh").
Broadband TWTAs generally use a helix TWT, and achieve less than 2.5 kW output power. TWTAs using a coupled cavity TWT can achieve 15 kW output power, but at the expense of bandwidth.
TWTAs are commonly used as amplifiers in satellite transponders, where the input signal is very weak and the output needs to be high power.[14]
A TWTA whose output drives an antenna is a type of transmitter. TWTA transmitters are used extensively in radar, particularly in airborne fire-control radar systems, and in electronic warfare and self-protection systems.[15] In such applications, a control grid is typically introduced between the TWT's electron gun and slow-wave structure to allow pulsed operation. The circuit that drives the control grid is usually referred to as a grid modulator.
Another major use of TWTAs is for the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing industry for immunity testing of electronic devices.[citation needed]
TWTAs can often be found in older (pre-1995) aviation SSR microwave transponders.[citation needed]
Historical notes[edit]
A TWT has sometimes been referred to as a "traveling-wave amplifier tube" (TWAT),[16] although this term was never widely adopted. "TWT" has been pronounced by engineers as "twit",[17] and "TWTA" as "tweeta".[18]

The computers are mostly Mac's and they're all state-of-the-art equipped with accessible printers as well. While the computer lab is great, sometimes the computers throughout the School are not working properly. The inconsistency should be addressed.
Most Juilliard students live on campus. Student Affairs usually has some sort of activities going on for the students...be it a holiday celebration, guest speakers on subjects that relate to entertainment careers, free food and movies. Our campus is fabulous. For dance, drama and music we pretty much have state of the art facilities to study our craft.
Health & Safety:
Juilliard is a part of Lincoln Center and security is everywhere. There is not a time that I don't feel safe and secure.
Juilliard is a pretty diverse campus on all aspects...race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.
Campus Housing:
As a freshman, students are mandated to live on campus in the dorm. My experience was not that good. Our suite was very outdated, it smelled, bathrooms/showers were in horrible condition with mold and extensive signs of where on the ceiling and floors. The students were also responsible for cleaning of the suite and bathrooms...that was like the beginning of germs being built up for the entire year. Students don't know how to clean and clean so that germs are not being spread. I hated the experience in the dorms because of the filth and condition.
Guys & Girls:
They are very dedicated to their studies but also very nice. Everyone works very hard and very long hours because the classes are very long and then there is a lot of practice time needed. When one goes out to unwind they are super nice and very encouraging. The girls are really pretty and everyone is super smart. There is a wonderful diversity with people from 39 countries.
There is no parking for the school, you'd have to park on the street and that is VERY hard and expensive (plus you would need to keep moving the car every few hours during the day. There is a parking garage for the area but that is VERY expensive. You really do not need a car at all.
You can get public transportation (subways) a block away and taxis (but they are can get very expensive) are not hard to find. Feet work great and it is a wonderful area to find everything you need close by.
Great Program, Loaded Schedule – I am a dance major at The Juilliard School. The faculty and classes offered to the dancers are beneficial and challenging. The faculty pay a great deal of attention the individual student, to help give them personal attention and help each dancer improve. However, the students' schedules fill up very quickly. We are in class all day and can be in rehearsal until 10:30 pm. This makes it difficult for students to stay on top of their work in their academic classes.
Having a car in New York City is both unnecessary and a hassle. Spots in parking lots can cost hundreds of dollars, which is money that most students need to keep in their pockets.
Decent Quality and Reliable Equipment. The computers in my school are fairly dated, but the programs on the computer are updated and function properly. The lab is fairly small and is usually pretty crowded during cram periods at the end of a semester. One great thing about the computer lab is that there is always a monitor to tend to printer and computer malfunctions.
All Basic Needs Met, Plus a Few Special Needs. Juilliard has a good, basic computer lab, with fairly recent computers and programs. There are also newer computers with good special programs for the music students and people to help with technical problems and navigational questions. Internet is good, sometimes it gets stuck. The lab gets crowded pretty quick during finals and midterms, even regular lunch hour on occasion. Printers are good.
Drug Safety:
Campus Is Too Small/Intimate for Blatant Drug/Alcohol Use. Most people do their drinking and drugs at home after school and only rarely come to school high or drunk. Smoking regular cigarettes just outside is very prevalent though.
Overall Experience:
Rubbing Shoulders With Brilliancy. Being surrounded by brilliant people - faculty, staff and peers - has provided an incredible environment of sky high expectations and ways and means to reach them. With the administration there are often moments of discouragement, misunderstanding and there is room for more departure from stereotypes or subjective priorities, but the overall success of the curriculum and teaching methods are worth the trouble.
Greek Life:
I can't say that I have ever heard of any level of Greek life at Juilliard.
There are subway stop all around Juilliard so it's pretty easy to get to and you can get anywhere from New York. So not half bad.
A Lot of Work – The drama audition process is complicated. You must fill out the application online, pay the $50 processing fee, and submit your personal essay. You are asked to prepare four monologues: two modern two classical, contrasting. Then you get your audition call-time, and date. You go to a large open call and then are asked to perform two monologues and sing 16 bars of a song of your choice. After this the call back list is posted. If you get a callback you stay all day and then perform your monologues for the entire faculty. Then you go home.If you get a callback from there it is for the final callback weekend in March. Here you share your monologues once more or the faculty and then proceed to take classes for two days with forty other students while you decide if you like the school and while the Juilliard faculty observes your work. They then cut this group down to the final 18 for the class(9 men, 9 women).
Off-Campus Housing:
Cheaper Than Campus – You can find a two bedroom 20 min from the school for a third of the price you pay on campus. Also, at this cheaper price you get to have a kitchen, your own room, and not be surrounded by the constant warm-ups of the hundreds of musicians you share the dorms with. Talk to the school to make sure that you're in a safe area. Anything right off of subway line, east/west-village, midtown, or west of Broadway is typically pretty safeHOWEVER, in the dorms there are two pianos on every floor of the dorms, so if that interests you (24 hour access to pianos) then maybe the dorms are worth the steep markup? Your choice.
Campus Strictness:
The administration, in my two years at Juilliard, doesn't make frivolous rules: just don't forget the school opens late on Sundays, and you WILL NOT be let in. The dorms have a man in charge of them who is power hungry and very condescending to the students: even though many of the graduate students are very close to his age. I have heard nothing but horrible reviews when it comes to him, and my interactions with him have always been less than pleasant. He is the type of man who goes with the "letter of the law", instead of supporting the "spirit of the law"
Off-Campus Dining:
Great options around the campus, but they are steep mid-town prices.
Drug Safety:
We're Always High – Being at Juilliard is difficult because as artists we are always forced to push the boundries of creativity. This being said, drugs and alcohol are abundant in the dorms and school; people are always smoking joints in the practice rooms and chugging beers before class to ensure they are thinking at the highest possible creativity levels.
Guys & Girls:
Student Life – The Freshman class is half guys half girls in the dance department and we are like family. We totally support one another & go on outings on a regular basis.
A fabulous library including music. The dance rooms overlook the city and the music rooms have incredible acoustics. The theaters are amazing as well. NYC has any kind of food or shopping you could want & the dorms overlook Cental Park.
Overall Experience:
Juilliard Is One-Of-A-Kind – The atmosphere is Juilliard is like no other school I've every encountered. The teachers are amazing, the students are amazing, the administration is amazing. Everyone is involved in making extraordinary art. It's a lot of work, but the rewards are intensely gratifying. I love it here. I know I'm at the right place for me.
The school is near several subway stops, so it is very convenient to move about the city. The price is modest for the service, and you can get anywhere with a subway/bus card and a little walking. Taxis are also an option, but only if you have a deep wallet.

Office is efficient. Started all 3 of my ikds on time. Staff is also wonderful with my kids. We feel very comfortabnle coming here to yoru smiling faces. Overall experience is great.
I was completely satisfied with the courtesy of the staff. Dr. Baker is the best. Takes his time in answering our questions and that could be why I had to wait 10 minutes but really that is nothing in doctor waiting room time.
Awesome as always! The staff here is always so helpful and friendly. The boys nervousness is reduced because of this.
You were all so wonderful. Awesome with kids. You make my daughter feel safe and comfortable. Dr. Baker was friendly and knowledgable. Thank you!
The staff if very courteous and thoughtful. The wait time was very short. The attention to my children was great! You are doing a good job here!
I was able to get this appointment quickly. I loved finding out my daughter doesnt have any cavities! I am very happy! Thank you.
Everything was great. Nice environment and very welcoming. They explained all of the plans thoroughly. I love the positive encouragement for the nervous patients.

"This was my first time ordering from TinyPrints and I am in awe! I received very high quality products. My only suggestion with this card -- go for the pearl white shimmer paper! I ordered a sample with shimmer but then my husband vetoed it for our actual card. I wish that I wouldn't have let him, because it really does add a lovely detail to this card. Would I put every card on shimmer paper? Absolutely not, but this one begs for it."
"Ordering my Christmas cards from Tiny Prints was a very fun and easy experience. Designing the card was most fun of all. There were so many good choices to pick from, but I knew what I wanted from the start. When I received the cards they were absolutely beautiful and I couldn't wait to send them out. The quality of the paper was excellent and all the photos were clear and of good color. They were so good I am thinking of ordering more. I am definitely hooked on Tiny Prints!"
"Our card turned out really great and we got lots of compliments. I love how easy these cards are to complete and the edit options available. The design and quality are always perfect, this is our third year in a row to select our Christmas card from Tiny Prints because I know they will deliver a great product on time."
"This is one of those cases where the web can't capture the beauty of a product- WOW! The heavy card stock, the fullness of the photos laid under the cool font, just the right amount of snowflake embellishments. The fold makes it a nice display for family. Our best holiday card ever, we got many compliments. It turned out really well, a very nice surprise. It wasn't featured prominently on the site and the initial preview was in black, so I almost passed on it. We got it in cranberry. A bit confusing with the envelopes. They do offer the modified square envelopes but they aren't nearly as nice as the actual square envelopes. Our postman told us there was no need for extra postage, not sure if that's true or if he's just a really awesome postman! In any case, if you are aesthetically minded, go for the traditional square instead of the modified square."
"I am VERY happy with my Christmas cards. The quality is unsurpassed, from the paper to the design layout. You make it SO easy and effortless, yet it looks like I worked so hard! Thank you...will Always come here for my cards!"

Newly restored digital copies of 73-year-old maps detailing where U.S military veterans are buried throughout Hamilton County will be unveiled Wednesday.
The Hamilton County Recorder's Office recently received map books dating to 1939 that were thought to have been destroyed. Created by the Works Progress Administration, the map books register the burial location of every veteran in the county who had served dating back to the Revolutionary War.
The maps list details about area veterans who served in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the War with Mexico, the Civil War, the Spanish-American War and World War I.
Eventually, the records were transferred to microfiche between the 1950s and '70s, and the map books were given to a local resident. The filmed copies began degrading over time and are of poor quality, causing problems for historians, genealogical researchers and others who tried to use them.
A member of the Ohio Genealogical Society ultimately acquired the original copies of the map books and presented them to the Recorder's Office in February. Since that time, the office has worked to transfer the images to a digital format and enhance their quality. All of the images now are available on the Recorder's Office website.
County Recorder Wayne Coates will unveil the newly restored records at 2 p.m. Wednesday. The event will be held in Room 205 of the County Administration Building, located at 138 E. Court St., downtown.
The Internet's strange allure can't be resisted.
First, local blogger and veteran journalist Bill Sloat decided to revive his excellent Daily Bellwether blog after an absence of several months, once again offering his fresh take on news around Ohio's major cities.
Now Jim Hopkins has brought back his insightful Gannett Blog, offering news, analysis and criticism about the newspaper and media giant that owns The Cincinnati Enquirer and USA Today.
After 18 months in the courts, Democrat Tracie Hunter has won a Hamilton County Juvenile Court judgeship, but a GOP challenge to the court's acceptance of Hunter's challenge is likely to follow. Republican John Williams led hunter by 23 votes on election night 2010, but Hunter filed a lawsuit over provisional ballots cast at incorrect polling stations that weren't counted. After a recount of 286 provisional ballots, Hunter moved ahead by 74 votes. Republican board of election members reportedly plan to argue that the 286 should not have been recounted.
The Enquirer's Mark Curnutte today offered an analysis of recently released census data that shows a steady growth of the regional Hispanic population and a growth of minority population in areas outside the city that were once largely white. Cincinnati's data suggests that the city and region are slightly different than the nation's overall trend, which in 2011 for the first time found a majority of the country's under 1-year-old population minority (50.4 percent), up from 49.5 percent in 2010.
Included in The Enquirer's story, which included a profile of a Mexican-American Florence family that moved to Northern Kentucky eight years ago from Los Angeles:
A decrease of 1.3 percentage points in Hamilton County's black population under 5 was countered by increases in the black population under 5 in each of the region's six other core counties: Butler, Clermont and Warren in Ohio and Boone, Campbell and Kenton in Kentucky.
Overall, the regional population of Hispanic children under 5 years rose from 7,583 in 2010 to 8,032 in 2011, a proportional increase of 0.4 percentage points to 6.1 percent.
The family of a teenager fatally shot by a Cincinnati police officer on Fountain Square last summer has filed a federal lawsuit alleging police used excessive force and violated 16-year-old Davon Mullins' constitutional rights. Police say Mullins pulled a handgun, but the lawsuit says he had been disarmed before officer Oscar Cyranek shot him multiple times.
